Sister Prisca Achievement Center
Mercy is committed to providing comprehensive academic support to ALL students through our Sister Prisca Achievement Center (PAC). The PAC is staffed with expert interventionists and is designed to model collegiate learning and growth resource labs to give individualized attention to students in every subject at all academic levels.
Flexible scheduling options are available by walk-in and appointment to accommodate students' busy lives. Last year alone, the PAC completed a total of 604 tutoring appointments and 2,429 walk-in sessions. It is open before and during school every day, and all students are encouraged to visit during their study blocks.
